MrBeast named in California lawsuit over 'Beast Games' show

YouTuber MrBeast has been named in a lawsuit claiming participants in his $5 million jackpot game show were exploited.

Contestants say they were subjected to unfair treatment and sexual harassment while participating in what has been billed as the world's biggest live game show.

Papers filed in a Los Angeles court on Monday allege contestants were not paid proper wages, and were not given meal breaks or appropriate rest.

The plaintiffs are identified only as contestants 1-5 in the Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit filed against Amazon Alternative LLC and Jimmy Donaldson's (MrBeast's) production company, MRB2024 LLC.

The suit seeks payment of all wages owed, an injunction forbidding the labor actions alleged and certification of the suit as a class-action complaint.
